Suggestions for Baseball Themed Wedding Favors

For some couples, the pivotal moment in their relationship happens inside their favorite restaurant, a local park, or maybe a shopping mall. But for some, meeting their future spouse, or getting to know their future spouse, or the proposal, sometimes happen in the stands.

With people’s love for baseball, it’s not really unusual that people do meet or grow their relationship by engaging in this sport. For these fun loving couples, it is no wonder too that their wedding becomes a baseball themed wedding. While you can have almost everything in your wedding customized to make it as baseball themed as possible, here are some ideas for baseball wedding favors that you can use in your wedding.

For edible favors, you can have baseball shaped cookies and cupcakes. You can purchase them and just wait for them to be delivered or if one of your hobbies is baking, you can make them personally. Be careful though in handling edible favors as they may spoil if not handled properly.

To make them more baseball related, decorate your cupcakes with colorful sprinkles and have them shaped on top as baseballs. For the cookies, they can be cut into baseball or baseball field shapes with customized cutters. You can also have these personally made or simply order them online.

For practical favors, you can give away keychains, candles, coasters or photo frames. Keychains that are shaped into baseball bats make for a great and useful favor. Candles can be molded into different baseball shapes and you can customize the colors as well. Glass coaters can be printed a baseball logo and as well as the photo frames. To make them personalized, you can print your details on the favors labels instead. As there are no spaces available on these items where you can print the wedding details, placing them in boxes, or placing hang tags or mini cards will do the trick to have your wedding details be seen. Order these items from special bridal favors stores or go online to save you time as well.

Your guests will truly appreciate these one of a kind favors that you have prepared for them. As wedding favors are generally a symbol of gratitude for their time and effort, guests will leave your wedding in a spirited mood as well. Your wedding ideas will truly be unique and will be remembered for a long time with your baseball themed wedding that is tastefully coordinated from start to finish.

Refreshing Ideas for Garden Wedding Favors

Garden weddings are truly romantic in every sense of the word. From the décor to the ambience, everyone will definitely feel the warmth and romance during the wedding.
You can make your garden wedding as simple or as extravagant as you want it to be. Put flowing drapes or lovely floral designs for an elegant appeal. For the wedding favors, there are practical, edible and decorative favors that you can choose from. Listed below are some ideas on wedding favors that you may want to use during your wedding.

Cookies are great wedding favors and you can easily order some from specialty bridal favors stores or bakeries that are shaped as bees, mini pails or flowers. They are good to look at and even better when eaten. If you know your way around the kitchen, you can bake some and let your guests taste your secret recipe. You can go online and maybe opt to make your own cookie cutter as well, or purchase one from your local baking supply store.

During summer, lip balm favors and paper hand fans will prove to be very useful. You can have your names specially printed on the hand fans while you can put sticker labels on the lip balm favors. Both items are available on a variety of colors and you can choose one that will blend well with your color motif.

Candles can set a romantic mood during evenings on the garden, or they can annoy pesky insects during the day. Candles shaped as mini pails or flowers make for a good wedding favor as they are classic favors that everybody loves. You can also make your own candles as candle-making is very easy as well. What’s best is that you can prepare them months before your wedding so you need not rush to find time to make them. Save on cost by presenting the candles by themselves instead of placing them in a box or a transparent plastic.

For a refreshing change, one of the best wedding ideas for favors is to give flip-flops. While they may not seem romantic at first, flip-flops are truly practical and your guests will soon find them lovely too. They are never out of season, so you can easily find some from your local store.

Wedding favors, especially for garden weddings, will never fail to convey the message of love and romance to your guests. They will truly appreciate sharing this love as they come home with little tokens of their attendance.

Fun Candle Wedding Favors

Weddings are special and romantic occasions that celebrate the love between two people. Celebrated with family and friends, they are the ultimate proclamation of their devotion to each other. Used during weddings, candles are ever present as they are almost always associated with romance. Dinners are made more romantic when candlelit; and whether placed in the living room in the bedroom, candles bring a sense of serenity and romance in any living space. Candles symbolize hope and the promise of a brighter and better future.

Considered an all-time favorite as a wedding favor, candles are elegant but inexpensive. Here are some ideas which can turn your basic candle into well-loved candle wedding favors.

While you can use the regular candlestick as a wedding favor, there are other available candle designs such as: wedding cake candle, gingerbread candle, heart-shaped candle, carousel shaped or shoe shaped candles.

Whether funny, elegant, or romantic, there are lots of designs available to show your personality through your wedding favor. Find one that is really unique yet personal at the same time.

If you don’t feel like giving away wax candles, give away candle-related items such as gel candles or candle holders. Candle holder designs can range from the elegant medieval design, to the more playful cocktail glass candle holder.

Candles also come in almost any color possible. You can choose one that is in the same shade as your color motif or one that will complement it.

There are also guides that you can find online to teach you the basics of candle-making. Candle-making is actually easy and the materials are easy to find and relatively inexpensive. If you truly want a personal touch and would like to share your time and effort with your guests, you can make candles in whatever shape you fancy.

Whichever style, design or color you use, candles will never lose their appeal to both the aesthetics and symbolism of candles. They are never out of season or out of stock as other wedding favors.

Whether your guests use them or not, they will always be definitely good to look at and they will be reminded of the wonderful wedding and moments you’ve had. Wedding favors are meant to show appreciation to the guests, and what better way to show this to them than by giving them something that symbolizes that they have something and better to look forward to in their lives as well.
